Abstract:
|
Computer network traffic can be sampled at routers to determine the origin and destination of different packets. This is in turn used to estimate the volume of traffic between all origin-destination pairs. Use of higher sampling rate leads to better estimates but uses more resources. In this work we formulate the problem of determining the network-wide sampling rates as an optimal design problem. This problem is solved using semi-definite programming and simulations show that this design performs better than conventional sampling schemes.
